Laying Out the Equipment
4 The unit first turns on its GPS and acquires a new position. Then it will begin a series of
internal and external tests. The LEDs on the top of the unit indicate the current test and
whether the unit passes or fails each test.
5 Press or stomp the geophone into the ground. If you stomp the geophone while the
geophone test is running, the test will fail and the WRU will not deploy.
Verify that the WRU does not show a GEO self-test failure (see the following figure) after
placing the geophone. If the WRU does show a self-test failure, pick up the WRU, point
the geophone connector end towards the ground until all of the LEDs illuminate, and then
place the unit flat on the ground to re-run the self-test.
Figure 2–11 Place the Unit
NOTE
The WRU will attempt to get a 3-meter GPS lock for up to 15 minutes. During
this time, the GPS LED flashes. The WRU will not form until the GPS lock is
achieved. If the GPS lock cannot be achieved, form by serial number.
